ambulance


tell me who broke your heart

i am a master at stitching up wounds

a master at emotional first aid

let me heal you

with hopeful words and kept promises

let me show you what it means

to be loved by a good man,

an honest man

a man who will never reach for the bottle

or aim for your throat

tell me who broke your heart

and i will make sure the rest of your life is nothing but

cotton candy clouds and the strong setting sun

i will walk you through

a perfect daydream

every day

you are mine.
